A veteran judge expressed bewilderment over two mistrials in the prosecution of MS-13 leaders. Moises Rivera-Luna and Tokiro Ramirez faced racketeering conspiracy charges from a 2011 indictment. They were extradited to the U.S. to face trial decades later. The government alleged they led MS-13 cliques and incited violence from prison. Both pleaded not guilty and faced trials in late 2025 and early 2026. J</strong>uries were unable to reach unanimous verdicts in both trials. Disagreements among jurors and stated unwillingness to deliberate prevented convictions. The judge considered the possibility of juror misconduct influencing the outcomes. The prosecution sought to retry the defendants, with a third trial scheduled. The author suggests activist jurors are sabotaging convictions in D.C. This is contrasted with a perceived higher conviction rate under the previous administration for January 6 cases. The author questions the impartiality of D.C. juries and the judicial system.
